% This file contains a station summary listing for a temperature % station in the Berkeley Earth database. This station is identified as: % % Berkeley ID#: 39840 % Primary Name: THOMASTON % Record Type: TAVG % Country: United States % State: ME % Latitude: 44.08330 +/- 0.00005 % Longitude: -69.18330 +/- 0.00005 % Elevation (m): 40.84 +/- 0.15 % # of Months: 15 % % Alternate Names: Missing Station ID - 178760 % % IDs: coop - 178760 % ghcnd - USC00178760 % ncdc - 12002270 % % Sources: US Cooperative Summary of the Day % Global Historical Climatology Network - Daily % Multi-network Metadata System % % Site Hash: 627c5cc7c79c1542f8c7ef6e482628dd % Raw Data Hash: ff5b6a4d97f80821665eeb5276b88216 % Adj Data Hash: 7fb2637dd05214e0829ff0897b250e66 % % The data for this station is presented below in several columns and in % several forms. The temperature values are reported as "raw", % "adjusted", and "regional expectation". % % The "raw" values reflect the observations as originally ingested by % the Berkeley Earth system from one or more originating archive(s). % These "raw" values may reflect the merger of more than one temperature % time series if multiple archives reported values for this location. % Alongside the raw data we have also provided a flag indicating which % values failed initial quality control checks. A further column % dates at which the raw data may be subject to continuity "breaks" % due to documented station moves (denoted "1"), prolonged measurement % gaps (denoted "2"), documented time of observation changes (denoted "3") % and other empirically determined inhomogeneities (denoted "4"). % % In many cases, raw temperature data contains a number of artifacts, % caused by issues such as typographical errors, instrumentation changes, % station moves, and urban or agricultural development near the station. % The Berkeley Earth analysis process attempts to identify and estimate % the impact of various kinds of data quality problems by comparing each % time series to neighboring series. At the end of the analysis process, % the "adjusted" data is created as an estimate of what the weather at % this location might have looked like after removing apparent biases. % This "adjusted" data will generally to be free from quality control % issues and be regionally homogeneous. Some users may find this % "adjusted" data that attempts to remove apparent biases more % suitable for their needs, while other users may prefer to work % with raw values. % % Lastly, we have provided a "regional expectation" time series, based % on the Berkeley Earth expected temperatures in the neighborhood of the % station. This incorporates information from as many weather stations as % are available for the local region surrounding this location. Note % that the regional expectation may be a systematically a bit warmer or % colder than the weather stations by a few degrees due to differences % in mean elevation and other local characteristics. % % For each temperature time series, we have also included an "anomaly" % time series that removes both the seasonality and the long-term mean. % These anomalies may provide an easier way of seeing changes through % time. % % Reported temperatures are in Celsius and reflect monthly averages. As % these files are intended to be summaries for convenience, additional % information, including more detailed flagging and metadata, may be % available in our whole data set files. % % The Berkeley Earth analysis was run on 15-Nov-2013 19:55:48 % % Raw Data QC Continuity Adjusted Data Regional Expectation % Year, Month, Temperature, Anomaly, Failed, Breaks, Temperature, Anomaly, Temperature, Anomaly 1903 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -5.996 0.086 1903 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -4.789 0.578 1903 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 3.919 4.099 1903 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 5.794 0.288 1903 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 11.995 0.537 1903 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.067 -2.440 1903 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 18.443 -1.151 1903 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.860 -3.029 1903 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.269 0.541 1903 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.871 -0.372 1903 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 2.420 -1.334 1903 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -6.342 -2.720 1904 1 -11.162 -4.578 0 0 -11.162 -4.578 -9.983 -3.901 1904 2 -10.235 -4.365 1 0 NaN NaN -9.946 -4.579 1904 3 -1.367 -0.685 0 0 -1.367 -0.685 -1.296 -1.116 1904 4 4.015 -0.990 0 0 4.015 -0.990 4.130 -1.377 1904 5 12.767 1.810 0 0 12.767 1.810 13.366 1.907 1904 6 14.995 -1.010 0 0 14.995 -1.010 15.375 -1.133 1904 7 18.958 -0.135 1 0 NaN NaN 19.258 -0.336 1904 8 17.073 -1.313 1 0 NaN NaN 17.510 -1.378 1904 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 12.791 -1.937 1904 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 7.431 -1.811 1904 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 0.712 -3.042 1904 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -9.593 -5.971 1905 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -8.844 -2.762 1905 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -9.007 -3.640 1905 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -1.536 -1.356 1905 4 4.207 -0.798 0 0 4.207 -0.798 4.916 -0.591 1905 5 10.281 -0.676 0 0 10.281 -0.676 10.750 -0.708 1905 6 13.883 -2.122 0 0 13.883 -2.122 14.672 -1.836 1905 7 19.172 0.080 1 0 NaN NaN 19.391 -0.203 1905 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 17.468 -1.421 1905 9 13.390 -0.837 0 0 13.390 -0.837 13.610 -1.119 1905 10 7.633 -1.107 0 0 7.633 -1.107 8.389 -0.854 1905 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 2.752 -1.003 1905 12 -3.710 0.415 0 0 -3.710 0.415 -3.473 0.149 1906 1 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -2.405 3.678 1906 2 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -5.381 -0.014 1906 3 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -3.491 -3.311 1906 4 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 4.351 -1.155 1906 5 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 10.216 -1.242 1906 6 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 15.604 -0.903 1906 7 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 19.209 -0.385 1906 8 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 20.001 1.112 1906 9 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 14.864 0.136 1906 10 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 8.966 -0.277 1906 11 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 3.106 -0.648 1906 12 NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN -7.263 -3.641
